A handout photo made available by India’s Press Information Bureau (PIB) shows Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi attending the inauguration ceremony of the Ram Mandir temple in Ayodhya, Uttar Pradesh, India, 22 January 2024. The Indian prime minister presided over the inauguration of the grand temple dedicated to the Hindu god Lord Ram at a site believed to be his birthplace.
